The movie made Rs 57 crore in its opening day at home theatres on Wednesday. Due to its midweek release, the movie had a lengthy five-day weekend and was able to surpass the Rs 500 crore milestone globally during that period.
'Pathaan', which was directed by Siddharth Anand, hasn't surpassed the domestic box office totals of 'KGF Chapter 2' and 'Baahubali 2', but only when it comes to the Hindi version of these movies. Meanwhile, the film is about to surpass 'Dangal's record, which is currently at Rs 387.38 crore (nett).
Within eight days of its release, 'Pathaan' made Rs 336 crore in India. Its eight-day total in India has increased to Rs 348.50 crore owing to collections of Rs 12.50 crore in Tamil and Telugu.
